Rehab Medicine Referrals and Care Transition

Jill Williams, MD, Rehab Medicine Clinic, has announced her retirement on August 5, 2022. The recruitment and backfill of this position is currently on hold as Valley evaluates organization-wide operations and explores opportunities for collaboration and transformation.

Continued care for Jill’s patients is vitally important. The team is working with Valley’s Neuroscience Institute, UW Medicine Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation experts and community-based providers to transition care and help patients best meet their healthcare needs. A few key things to note:

• Dr. Zumsteg’s role/scope has not changed and will continue to focus on inpatient PM&R consultation
• After August 1, patients needing an outpatient PM&R physician should be referred by their PCP/other treating provider to a community-based PM&R clinic, such as Harborview Rehab Medicine or other appropriate care facility. Please VIEW the attached document for detailed referral information.

If you have questions, please reach out to Gayle Jewett, VP of Ambulatory Services, at 425.690.3060. Please join us in thanking Jill for her years of providing patient-centered, innovative and compassionate care to our patients.
